[@synitarthrax5618]

Ya, but that "22fps increase" is almost a 50% improvement. In fact, all of the games he did, showed anywhere from 40-50% fps increase from the 2060 to the 4060. I'm not a fan of the 4060 ... a 128 bit bus? ... but there was a very noticeable improvement from the 2060 as was expected. Over time as the tech improvements get harder to come by, one gen blowing out another is a dead horse.

It's really funny to think because of the 4060's bandwidth and VRAM or rather lack thereof, in situations where you push against the VRAM buffer or when you use higher graphics settings, resolutions or ray tracing, it's actually worse than its predecessor. Impressive Nvidia.

Well done. Typically, people who consider upgrading to an RTX 4060 graphics card won't have a very high-end CPU to begin with. Your testing configuration effectively simulates real-world scenarios.

[@TheSpotify95]

Yes, please do - though in regards to the 960, you'd need to buy both versions - the 4GB, and the infamous 2GB model. Likewise with the 1060 you'd need to cover the 3GB and 6GB models. Whilst it makes way more sense to have a 6GB 1060, a lot of older systems (mine included) has the weaker 2GB 960 instead of the 4GB model.

[@fubukisan50]

[@igelbofh]

I have both the EVGA 960 CS and the 2060 KO. The difference is unimpressive, even though on paper the 2060 should be 70% faster. On a 21:9 1080 monitor at 75Hz both deliver the same performance (vsync enabled of course)

[@justinpatterson5291]

Think I'll hold onto my EVGA 2060 SC for a while longer. No point paying the same price, for a 20 fps boost.

Honestly with dlss, not much reason to upgrade for awhile if you ask me. Yeah dlss at 1080p isnt the greatest looking, but it definitely looks better than actually dropping the resolution like youd have to do with the 10 series

[@HyperShinchan]

Same here (RTX 2060 gang, a very basic Zotac Twin Fan, though, it's shittier than the Founder's Edition). Personally I'm going to wait and look at prices and/or Nvidia releasing a Super version of the GPU with more VRAM. Currently I'm almost more tempted to get an RTX 3060 at current prices, because of the largish VRAM buffer and my childish interest in Stable Diffusion and Whisper, but the gaming gain are even more ridiculous and I wouldn't get DLSS 3.

[@BrotherO4]

remember dlss 3 does not improve performance. normally increase fps means better performance but not in this case. using DLSS 3 in facts means higher input lag than normal. aka 60 fps vs 60 fps dlss 3 to 120hz the 60 fps is performing better due to the lower input lag. Nvidia is trying to use BS to "Increase performance"

[@atnfn]

@@BrotherO4 Input lag isn't everything, at least not in single player games. I much rather have smooth framerate and 50-60ms latency that stuttering framerate when playing cyberpunk for example. Of course passing off dlss3 as real performance like nvidia tries to do is very misleading. When they compare one card without framegeneration and another card with frame generation.

I'm loving the frequency of uploads. Is the tax man coming at your door my friend?

[@RandomGaminginHD]

😂 nah I’m just getting my ideas into videos before I forget them

2060 still a capable GPU in 2023...well I damn well hope so. 4 years old and if its incapable then why buy it in the first place? Would the 4060 still be capable in 4 years time? I sincerely hope either the games developers cater for older hardware or GPU manufacturers think about the longevity of their products. But I know this'll fall on deaf ears since $$££ speak the loudest.

[@arenzricodexd4409]

there are reasons why steam most popular GPU is 1650.

This palit model with shorter PCIE connector on the card looks just wrong for such a card :(

[@_Devil]

RDR2 seems to be the ultimate stress test for any system configuration. It's very well optimized but also an incredibly demanding game if you want it to look at its best. I managed to squeeze 40-50 fps on my first PC which had a 1050 Ti and i5-7600k

[@MrSparkefrostie]

That pcie x8 slot looks like it's bound to say much sooner than it would if it had the x16, I know it's lighter but force x distance

[@silogisus]

I ve just got one 2060 for 90$ . How 300 $ is justified for 4060?

[@leogodofnone2706]

4:50 Very nice XD

[@samueldzurina290]

Can you compare it to the 5700xt ?

[@carlolalattacosterbosa5821]

thanks for showing pcie 3.0 vs pcie 4.0 with a 4060 is pointless... great video (also needed for me)

[@Remu-]

Why is your CPU not hitting full boost?

[@manray8513]

one 4060 please, i have dell t5610 that has 1 pcie 3.0 x8 and 2 pcie gen 3.0 x16. the x16 i can use for quad nvme setup and other for tesla p100, and i can use the x8 for display. thanks for the video man

I got myself a 2060 back in 2019, it died on me a week ago so I got it for 5 years and 2 months. Got myself a 4060 and I'm satisfied with it. I'm mostly in on it for the new tech like the frame gen and dlss3. I could have gotten a much better deal for a 3070 / ti or maybe even squeezed a few hundred bucks for a 4070 but the power consumption of the 4060 saves me A TON of electricity down the line considering I'm planning on keeping my build for a few more years. I'm only sacrificing like 10-20 fps on triple a games, no deal breaker. I mostly play at 1080p anyways so it's all dandy. Maybe if I was playing at 1440p or even attempt to a 4k, then an entirely new build would have been more plausible.

Dlaa will be the next key feature of nvidia. I prefer using it than DLSS+RT with my 4070.

[@andrewmutavi590]

Have u seen the Chinese cards with more V-Ram?like the 580 with 16gigz,I wish they could do something with the rx6400 rx6500xt rtx3070 rtx4060 n rtx4060ti

[@Kumimono]

I have been wondering, my 3060 is PCIe 4.0, but my mobo only supports 3.0. Seems like I'm not missing much.

[@RandomGaminginHD]

Yeah won’t be missing anything really :)

[@SianaGearz]

But 3060 can use full bus width, 16 lanes! It's only when you start chopping it down to 8 or 4 lanes then the per-lane throughput becomes noticeable at 8 and critical at 4.

[@potatoes9125]

helped me thnxs!

[@FistsOfHam]

Native is definitely best for benchmarks. DLSS/FSR is interesting as an aside but as it doesn't feature in a lot of games it's not something that can be relied on for purchasing decisions. I'd rather know what a card can handle and then have the extra benefit of enabling features when possible as an extra. If it has to rely on those extras then for me it's just not a good card.
